I think Chapman got his feelings hurt when Boone was saying Montas was his #2 starter so at this point I don't think Chapman really cares.

Boone is the designated yesman for Cashman to justify all of Cashman's moves and analytics be damned.

“There was no legitimate reason why he wasn’t here,” Cashman said. “He’s employed. He was due to provide work. The postseason roster hadn’t been set yet. (read: the press release with the roster wasn't made public yet). He chose not to come.”

Leaving Chapman off the roster was a no-brainer, but I've seen Cashman's M/O long enough to bet that Chapman was most certainly alerted to the fact he would not be on the post season roster before he decided to head home to Florida.

Now comes the part where Cashman piles all the blame back on the player, creating yet another villian who has victimised the Yankees. 10 year old children are more subtle in their deception than the ol' CASH-hole. The guy's got a pathological problem with tearing down players in public. I hope Judge scoots town. Very soon after the Guardians sweep!
